This is a fork of this plugin https://umod.org/plugins/night-lantern, author: k1lly0u
The fork was created to add new features requested by the community, on a plugin that has not been updated by the owner for years.

Night Lantern

Night Lantern automatically turns ON lanterns after sunset and then turns them OFF after sunrise.

Sunset and sunrise hours can be set in configuration file; default values are 7.5 and 18.5. These values determine when lights should be turned on and off.

Enable which light types you would like to have automated by changing "This type is enabled" for the various types in the configuration.

Choose to make lights consume fuel, or run free of charge by changing "This type consumes fuel" for the various light types in the configuration.

Allow players to toggle what types of lights they want to be automated by changing "This type can be toggled by the owner" in the config. This only affects lights they have placed themselves.

Option to require that only players with the correct permission can toggle their own lights type by changing "This type requires permission to be toggled by the owner" in the configuration.

When a player toggles on/off a light type all of their lights of that type will also be turned on/off (if within the automation time span).

Has inbuilt support for No Fuel Requirements
